Subject: RE: Fri. 16th july at Blacksmiths near York From: Carol Date: 29 Jun 04 - 05:04 AM Is it just for the one night 'cos it's the same weekend as Saddleworth and that would mean 'giving up' a whole weekend of singarounds (hopefully) for just the Friday night. Are you doing it again later on in the year as normally I could have made it. |

Subject: RE: Fri. 16th july at Blacksmiths near York From: el ted Date: 29 Jun 04 - 05:45 AM Yo Carol, Yes, we are planning one night only at the moment to see how it goes. If everyone has a titter we will hopefully do a full weekend in August. The Pub is ideal for it. So far I know that we have "the harri watts band" and "the Mick Tomlinson Experience" coming from Hull, and hopefully a Harp/uellian pipe duo breezing in from Harrogate. Oh, there will also be a lot of smock clad yokels as well! |

Subject: RE: Fri. 16th july at Blacksmiths near York From: Hand-Pulled Boy Date: 29 Jun 04 - 06:08 AM What's the weather forecast? Do I need to bring my storm guy ropes and pegs? Do the toilets have wooden seats? What's for breakfast? Are the showers 20p for 15 minutes. Will there be any cow pooh on the grass? Is it flat or hilly? Is there a tree to wee behind? Will we be woken early in the morning by bagpipes as it's near Scotland? Are high heel shoes out of the question? I could go on. So I will! Will my double sleeping bag be big enough? How friendly are the sheep? Do they sell petrol up there? Should I invest in some new ski's? Can we keep any mushrooms that we find? Will there be any guards on duty? How can it be free? |

Subject: RE: Fri. 16th july at Blacksmiths near York From: Nick Date: 29 Jun 04 - 06:15 AM If you are ever in the area on a Wednesday, Carol, we are always there and you would be welcome. I don't know how far away you are so it's difficult to know if that's feasible. There is still some (very basic) information about where the pub is on the following : Blacksmiths Arms, Farlington (I will try and upload a few pix and a bit more information soon in case it's useful. Probably not today as I am in an ongoing-significant-age-birthday crisis today) |

Subject: RE: Fri. 16th july at Blacksmiths near York From: Nick Date: 29 Jun 04 - 06:54 AM Aerial view of the village courtesy of multimap - Aerial view of Farlington >>What's the weather forecast? Excellent - sun shines on the righteous >>Do I need to bring my storm guy ropes and pegs? It depends if he needs them. >>Do the toilets have wooden seats? Mens no, ladies unsure. Soft paper. >>What's for breakfast? Make it yourself - Ben reckons he will have a hangover. There is a barbq which could be used. More later. >>Are the showers 20p for 15 minutes. Hot water available all time. No shower I am afraid. >>Will there be any cow pooh on the grass? Is George Bush a moron? >>Is it flat or hilly? See picture. Edge of Howardian Hills. 100 year old badger sett up road (very slow badgers...) >>Is there a tree to wee behind? Plenty. Most of us tend to use the toilet though. But then we are just simple Hill Folk happily frolicking on the fields with our flint based weapons and tools etc etc >>Will we be woken early in the morning by bagpipes as it's near Scotland? My wife's nephew is a trained piper. For a fee something could be arranged... >>Are high heel shoes out of the question? You can wear anything you like. Ted had his painted nails on and still was allowed out. >>I could go on. So I will! >>Will my double sleeping bag be big enough? How friendly are the sheep? Friendly to the point of illegality if you really pushed your luck. (I presume that's why you were querying the sleeping bag size?) >>Do they sell petrol up there? You have a car? Haven't seen one of those for many a year. Mostly horse and carts here. >>Should I invest in some new ski's? Gold is probably a better bit but you really need advice from a qualified financial consultant. I can put you in touch with one if you want. >>Can we keep any mushrooms that we find? Is this a Hull game? Like Hunt the Thimble? >>Will there be any guards on duty? Nope. >>How can it be free? Cos people are wonderful. |

I've been told about a 'session' every other Wed. at the George and Dragon, West Haddlesey near Selby and intend to explore there tomorrrow - hopefully to find some singing. also a reminder about Filey Folk Festival on 30 July to 1st Aug - concerts, musicians sessions and most importantly singarounds in the Grapes Pub all weekend!! |

Subject: RE: Fri. 16th july at Blacksmiths near York From: Sttaw Legend Date: 29 Jun 04 - 01:06 PM Nick you did so well with those other questions.....SO If you take an Oriental person and spin him around several times, does he become disoriented? If people from Poland are called Poles, why aren't people from Holland called Holes? If love is blind, why is lingerie so popular? When cheese gets its picture taken, what does it say? Why isn't the number 11 pronounced onety one? Last night I played a blank tape at full blast. The mime next door went nuts, why? Do people who spend 90p apiece on those little bottles of Evian water know that spelling it backwards is Naive? If 4 out of 5 people SUFFER from diarrhoea...Does that mean the fifth one enjoys it? |

Subject: RE: Fri. 16th july at Blacksmiths near York From: Nick Date: 29 Jun 04 - 06:15 PM >>If you take an Oriental person and spin him around several times, does he become disoriented? No. Disorientated perhaps. >>If people from Poland are called Poles, why aren't people from Holland called Holes? Holles surely? But it doesn't work. >>If love is blind, why is lingerie so popular? Because lust pinched love's sight >>When cheese gets its picture taken, what does it say? Cheeses don't talk. And anyway it's the photographer who asks the question. Presumably if cheeses DID talk they would say what the photographer asked. Ask the photographer >>Why isn't the number 11 pronounced onety one? Because 12 is not pronounced onety two. (and 10 is not onety nought) >>Last night I played a blank tape at full blast. The mime next door went nuts, why? Mime people are weird people. (Don't get me started on morris people*) >>Do people who spend 90p apiece on those little bottles of Evian water know that spelling it backwards is Naive? It backwards is ti - so probably not >>If 4 out of 5 people SUFFER from diarrhoea...Does that mean the fifth one enjoys it? Yes. And I know him. And he does. (*People who drive morris minors - not those nice dancing people) |

Subject: RE: Fri. 16th july at Blacksmiths near York From: Nick Date: 01 Jul 04 - 11:08 AM Thanks to Ted and Sweetfia for coming along last night and helping me (and Mike) celebrate our birthdays. (And thanks to everyone else who came and made it a memorable evening for me. Had a really good evening even though I didn't get to bed till 2 so am suffering a touch today. It augurs well for the 16th when I understand we will see a number of visitors. Bring your tents and campers and come and have fun. Us regular locals will be there plus I have contacted a few other people who I'm sure will come along and play or get involved. Hopefully we will manage to shoehorn all these people into the limited hours we have (what - 6 or 7? - Ed). Anyway thanks again to all concerned. And you sang really well last nice Sweetfia. Lovely. :) Hope you enjoy the cd by the way - remember to copy/pass it onto sweetfia's friend who I promised it to |

Subject: RE: Fri. 16th july at Blacksmiths near York From: Sweetfia Date: 01 Jul 04 - 11:39 AM Aww, you're making me blush, thanks Nick! Yeah thanks for the CD, it feels weird listening to yourself, but it's really useful. Neither of them look fifty! For a start Steve "El Ted" Robinson, Nick has all his hair, teeth and is still in shape...which is ALOT more than a can say for you!!! I'm really looking forward to the 16th now. And i know a few off you have been asking about increasing the time we spend at the Blacksmiths to a weekend...for now we are just keeping it for the night as we a keen to see how it goes. If all does go well i'm sure a weekend visit can be arranged for later on in the summer. Plus, the locals need breaking in...i'm not sure they could handle a bunch of nail vanished drag wearing foreigners for a whole weekend!! |

Subject: RE: Fri. 16th july at Blacksmiths near York From: el ted Date: 01 Jul 04 - 11:40 AM Nick was 50 yesterday, Sophia doesn't think he looks that old, but I do! Thanks for the CD of our last visit Nick, we played when we got home at half past ridicuous or whatever time it was. |

Subject: RE: Fri. 16th july at Blacksmiths near York From: The Beast of Farlington Date: 02 Jul 04 - 08:55 AM About the aerial photo Nick sent.... It must be a fake. There is never enough break in the cloud cover to take a picture like this. And the Beast's Lair is not shown |

Subject: RE: Fri. 16th july at Blacksmiths near York From: el ted Date: 02 Jul 04 - 09:10 AM How did he take it? did he set the timer on his camera and then chuck it high into the air or what? who taught him how to use one anyway? |

Subject: RE: Fri. 16th july at Blacksmiths near York From: Nick Date: 02 Jul 04 - 09:31 AM From North Yorkshire weather from the BBC - "May was warmer, drier and sunnier than normal this year... Sunny May Fortunately there were no hurricanes in May, indeed it may surprise you that the month was actually warmer, drier and sunnier than normal. How could we have a month without breaking a record! In fact this month's accolade goes to Fylingdales, high up on the North York moors, which recorded its highest ever May temperature - 27.8C (82F) on Saturday 31st May. Temperature 16.8 deg C (average 15.7 deg C) Rainfall 43mm (Average 56mm) Sunshine 197hrs (Average 185hrs) " So that would be about 6 hours a day to take the picture. How was it done? Well... We have some swifts nesting just above our bedroom window and have got to know them quite well. It was an easy job to teach them to use the digital camera (one holds it round his neck, one points it, and one pushes the shoot button) and they seemed to reckon it is a reasonable trade for a summer's accommodation. |

However, who can fail to have feelings for Gedpipes when he pumps up his sack and launches into Madame Bonaparte! Ossonflags in the above posting demonstrates clearly feels the same way. See you all on the 16th. Richard. |

Subject: RE: Fri. 16th july at Blacksmiths near York From: Sweetfia Date: 12 Jul 04 - 04:32 AM C'mon Dad....size 12!!! And who are you trying to kid now, eh? You're at least a 14 now, maybe a 16 if you go to Topshop cos their cuts are alittle smaller. |
|
Subject: RE: Fri. 16th july at Blacksmiths near York From: Sweetfia Date: 12 Jul 04 - 04:36 AM Then again, if you went to Wallis the most you'd prob be is a 14. Their cuts are quite generous...oh sorry, this isn't a clothes thread is is?! |

|
Subject: RE: Fri. 16th july at Blacksmiths near York From: ThreeSheds Date: 13 Jul 04 - 04:31 AM The menu at Teds' Tapas tent is starting to sound rather strange so far it seems to consist of Raw bacon (don't you mean Serrano ham) Bruised squid Sausage ( in mitigation against the effects of salmonella should this not be salami) Wot no chips |
|
Subject: RE: Fri. 16th july at Blacksmiths near York From: el ted Date: 13 Jul 04 - 04:36 AM You will get a short length of chorizo andy and be grateful for it! Ben's weekly BBQ sounds fab to me. dunno who he's cooking yet though. |
|
Subject: RE: Fri. 16th july at Blacksmiths near York From: Sttaw Legend Date: 13 Jul 04 - 04:37 AM Better of eating the locals food when they've finished chewing it, you'll never get the above through quarantine in time. |
|
Subject: RE: Fri. 16th july at Blacksmiths near York From: The Beast of Farlington Date: 13 Jul 04 - 06:01 AM The Beast will look forward to the barbeque...hullite kebabs, most excellent. Hur! Hur! Hur! |
|
Subject: RE: Fri. 16th july at Blacksmiths near York From: el ted Date: 13 Jul 04 - 06:22 AM No good beast, they are all too fatty, and they taste of chicken. I will bring some of jOhn's hamster burgers. |
|
Subject: RE: Fri. 16th july at Blacksmiths near York From: ThreeSheds Date: 13 Jul 04 - 08:26 AM I think I'll fetch a pack up |
|
Subject: RE: Fri. 16th july at Blacksmiths near York From: GUEST,Nick Date: 13 Jul 04 - 09:22 AM A pack of hamsters? Have to say a lot of people over Farlington way are wishing the week away and really looking forward to Friday. Not sure exactly who is coming from here but we should have a good idea after tomorrow night's normal do. I reckon we should end up in the 25-30+ performers at a guess which should keep us going a while. Looking forward to it. Nick (working in Spring Bank West at the moment) |
|
Subject: RE: Fri. 16th july at Blacksmiths near York From: The Beast of Farlington Date: 13 Jul 04 - 09:39 AM Well the Beast will be there. But not late as he needs his Beauty and the Beast sleep. Geddit?! |
|
Subject: RE: Fri. 16th july at Blacksmiths near York From: Sttaw Legend Date: 13 Jul 04 - 09:40 AM "working in Spring Bank West at the moment" Didn't have you down as a grave robber Nick, but it takes all sorts |
|
Subject: RE: Fri. 16th july at Blacksmiths near York From: el ted Date: 13 Jul 04 - 09:59 AM Close Dave, Nick installs computer systems, that's nearly as criminal as grave robbing! |
|
Subject: RE: Fri. 16th july at Blacksmiths near York From: el ted Date: 13 Jul 04 - 10:25 AM Nick has rung me from James Reckitt Avenue, but he got cut off,I don't think he realises phone boxes take coins not carrots!!!! |
|
Subject: RE: Fri. 16th july at Blacksmiths near York From: The Beast of Farlington Date: 13 Jul 04 - 11:37 AM I've heard that you Hullites will 'take' anything |
|
Subject: RE: Fri. 16th july at Blacksmiths near York From: el ted Date: 13 Jul 04 - 11:45 AM True, preferably 'roughly from behind' This is a bit late notice, but we are meeting Nick for a swift half in The Queens at 5.37pm(approx) today if anyone is in the area? Will he ever go back to Fartington after sampling the delights of The Queens? I doubt it! |
|
Subject: RE: Fri. 16th july at Blacksmiths near York From: The Beast of Farlington Date: 13 Jul 04 - 11:57 AM It can't be better than The Blacksmith's Arms! |
|
Subject: RE: Fri. 16th july at Blacksmiths near York From: el ted Date: 13 Jul 04 - 12:03 PM True. But Nick's head is sure to be turned, think of it from his side of things, he is about to experience clothes, electricity, indoor plumbing, humans, intelligable speech patterns and buildings with roofs! |
|
Subject: RE: Fri. 16th july at Blacksmiths near York From: The Beast of Farlington Date: 13 Jul 04 - 12:14 PM Yeah, but Nick doesn't LIVE in Farlington (officially - obviously the amount of time he spends inthe pub means he could be counted as a resident) - he lives in Sheriff Hutton so is used to such soft options. So I'll grant you that you have big city living but 'intelligible speech patterns' in a post about Hull?!!!! Pleeeeasse....! |

After several sherries, we put a pair of human trousers on him, sat him on his donkey and sent him back on his merry way to Fartington. He should be arriving there any minute now. |
|
Subject: RE: Fri. 16th july at Blacksmiths near York From: The Beast of Farlington Date: 14 Jul 04 - 04:35 AM No, he still hasn't arrived! |
|
Subject: RE: Fri. 16th july at Blacksmiths near York From: el ted Date: 14 Jul 04 - 04:53 AM Oh shit! I had a good chat with the donkey (it made far more sense than Nick) and it assured me it knew the way back to Fartington! |
|
Subject: RE: Fri. 16th july at Blacksmiths near York From: Sttaw Legend Date: 14 Jul 04 - 05:25 AM That was the best donkey we had, it's the only one that can read a map and needs to be back on Withernsea beech today. |

Subject: RE: Fri. 16th july at Blacksmiths near York From: Ben Dover Date: 14 Jul 04 - 11:45 AM I will be there, indulging myself in my usual hobby. |

Subject: RE: Fri. 16th july at Blacksmiths near York From: el ted Date: 15 Jul 04 - 09:21 AM It's thick, it's fruity, it's tomorrow! sounds like we might also have Steve Warne, guitarist extraordinaire, coming down from Stokesley. See you all there. |
|
Subject: RE: Fri. 16th july at Blacksmiths near York From: Nick Date: 15 Jul 04 - 09:45 AM I understand there is already a small queue starting to form outside the curtain in anticipation and to pinch the best seats. (Too late!I've already put my towel there. Yuk, yuk.) Starting to wonder whether we will need to operate a shift system or perhaps suspend people from the ceiling or walls to accommodate all who want to play and listen. Or perhaps a system a bit like a Chinese restaurant where as soon as you put your instrument down the next sitting come in. It will definitely be cosy. We had a good evening last night to practice and are really looking forward to it from this end. Lynne (and I) enjoyed Christine and John's CD - thanks very much for it and we'll look forward to complimenting them on it when we see them. See you on the morrow. Beast has been assigned the job of laying the straw trail from the main road to the pub tonight. We aim to light it about 6.45 tomorrow to guide you all in. |

Subject: RE: Fri. 16th july at Blacksmiths near York From: el ted Date: 15 Jul 04 - 09:48 AM The campimg area is going to get bloody interesting! |
|
Subject: RE: Fri. 16th july at Blacksmiths near York From: Sweetfia Date: 15 Jul 04 - 09:53 AM Hehehe, I can't wait. The after hours sessions are always the best! Nick, will you be returing home on the night (or morning as i'm sure the case will be) or will you be daring and stay in a car park full of Ullites?? |
|
Subject: RE: Fri. 16th july at Blacksmiths near York From: The Beast of Farlington Date: 15 Jul 04 - 09:56 AM The Beast is investigating the possibility of erecting signs saying 'Farlington: twinned with Hull' |
|
Subject: RE: Fri. 16th july at Blacksmiths near York From: Sweetfia Date: 15 Jul 04 - 09:58 AM LOL!!! |
|
Subject: RE: Fri. 16th july at Blacksmiths near York From: Nick Date: 15 Jul 04 - 10:01 AM Given my advancing years, Sweetfia, I will be doing the sensible thing. Comfort above adventure. |
|
Subject: RE: Fri. 16th july at Blacksmiths near York From: The Beast of Farlington Date: 15 Jul 04 - 10:03 AM ...but the Beast suspects that the good villagers of Farlington (ie not the ones who come to the pub) might be upset and set fire to the Beast's lair. Incidentally, one word of caution, the pub car park is surrounded by houses and so please bear that in mind when eventually you kip down for the night (what's left of it)by being quiet. Difficult, I know! |
|
Subject: RE: Fri. 16th july at Blacksmiths near York From: Sweetfia Date: 15 Jul 04 - 10:04 AM Maybe next time then! |

Subject: RE: Fri. 16th july at Blacksmiths near York From: el ted Date: 15 Jul 04 - 10:34 AM " take one bodhran player and roast slowly over the embers of several burnt strats" That is a quote straight out of the Beast's cookbook that is! |
|
Subject: RE: Fri. 16th july at Blacksmiths near York From: Sttaw Legend Date: 15 Jul 04 - 10:47 AM What time does the car boot sale start on the Saturday morning and how much is it per plot ? Have just finished loading the third juggernaut. I'm also looking forward to the tombola - such fun |
|
Subject: RE: Fri. 16th july at Blacksmiths near York From: The DeanMeister Date: 15 Jul 04 - 11:01 AM I wouldn't waste a strat on a Bodhran player, Edward. |

Subject: RE: Fri. 16th july at Blacksmiths near York From: el ted Date: 15 Jul 04 - 11:23 AM 5.32pm(approx) apparently I have to take francesca somewhere daft, then we collect Nahro at 6.02pm(approx) I think Richard is coming with Andy Golistizxivcxisci and Ged so We don't have to detour through Beverley now. Reveille will be 7.08am(approx) on sat morning as you, maggie and Dereck all have to be at work in the afternoon. |

Subject: RE: Fri. 16th july at Blacksmiths near York From: Sttaw Legend Date: 16 Jul 04 - 05:54 AM You actually have a post box, you'll tell me you have electricity next. |

Subject: RE: Fri. 16th july at Blacksmiths near York From: Nick Date: 16 Jul 04 - 06:23 AM Of course there is electricity - a strat without electricity is like a fish without a bicycle Right. My mind is made up. I'll put my strat in the back of the cart |

Subject: RE: Fri. 16th july at Blacksmiths near York From: GUEST,Nick_ Date: 19 Jul 04 - 11:50 AM Richard - I'll try and extract some music over the next week or so and I'll then pop it on cd - is there a way I can get it to you? Send me a message or you can email me at music@nickblair.co.uk and I will sort something out Out of interest what was the name of the tune that was a favourite of yours that you played me on Saturday afternoon? Memory like a sieve and I can't recall it And glad people enjoyed themselves, I know the locals did. Perhaps more singing next time? I felt it was perhaps a bit biased towards tunes rather than songs. |

Subject: RE: Fri. 16th july at Blacksmiths near York From: GUEST,ossonflags Date: 19 Jul 04 - 02:03 PM Don't want to open up the old singers versus musos battle again Nick, but it always is a bit of a problem when you have a good clutch of musicians.I thought it was a little fiddle biased at one stage but that is how the ball bounces. Unless you have someone who is willing to take control ! And take it from me you have to be damned good/sober to control a load of festive musos when they are on a roll.A bit like minding mice at crossroads. Anyhow,we all enjoyed usselves and are itching for a return visit. You Fartington lot are more than welcome at my singaround /playaround at "the monks walk" pub in beverley,first sunday in the month.Watch mudcat for further details. And again thanks lots. |

Subject: RE: Fri. 16th july at Blacksmiths near York From: Nick Date: 19 Jul 04 - 06:22 PM Osson you are a top man - and wonderfully diplomatic (and I enjoyed your link). It was an observation - not a criticism. For a first go it was more than expected. Having 20-30 people in a room bursting to play is an interesting torrent to stem. I think it would need a pretty strong soul to control the desire to play that was there through till *cough* o'clock But on the bright side - starting a new thread to work out the next date... |
